Battery Stats after One day

So the battery life is looking not bad at all BeginnersTech on twitter tweeted these pics.

My Nexus 5 gets 1 hour of SOT extra, and the applications on the stats looks like they haven't been used for very long..
BUT, "Android System" is on top, meaning that maybe it was doing updates to google services and whatnot.

Your nexus 5 can make 7h SOT? That's plain bull**** (unless you keep it on a desk).
BTW second day by BeginnersTech on twitter with the s6 edge+, damn good if you ask me.

Check it out man, Reading and playing music, and some other minor activities.

I see people in the Note5 forums are getting great battery life so I'm expecting and hoping for the same. I could hit 6 hours SOT on the date occasion with my regular edge. (Although that was literally down to the 1% mark.)

Very nice
It seems there is a competition between the edge+ and the note 5 in battery.. both amazed me really..

I'll just leave this here.

So I know it's just one day and a little bit into my second run but this completely blows away when I was getting from my Nexus 6. I was lucky to get close to 5 hours of on screen time. Very happy with this change.

Oh yeah. Attachment

Attach please find some screenshot, this is my 3rd day with device.

Day one, sorry to crash the party
Brightness on 100% and 4G all day (verizon)

Well with 100% brightness and data all day it is normal to get 3,5 hours.. I see that I am going to get 5,5 hours with WiFi usage and brightness set at around 60% but I am only on my first charge cycle..

Using lux to maintain brightness helps a lot too. Going about 60%pointless

When you are in home and it is dark there is no point putting more than 60% or 70% since I think it is too bright. I am not talking Automatic option ticked here.. anyway this screen is amazing, if somebody wants to get like 7hours OST to show around here OK be my guest but real life is around 4-5 hours I believe (mixed wifi and data usage)

i get between 7 - 9 sot with my exynos note 4 if the note 5 can top this great but i doubt it

Another day of real world usage

Are you people that get 6 plus hours of SOT on mostly wifi? I just can't see getting that on the network, even with solid strength. The post above me seems more legit.

I've seen a pretty decent variance between wifi and 4g. So yeah I'm about 6 hours sot on wifi and closer to 4 on 4g depending on signal strength.

I've had this phone since Wednesday and since yesterday I've gotten some nice battery life. I'm on pace for 5+ hours of sot.

Mediocre battery life

So I bought this phon about 3 weeks ago.
One of the primary reasons was the battery life since I'm not usually near a power supply.
But I've been struggling to get past 5 hours of screen on time on light to medium use.
Standby time is great though. No battery drain, but the moment I start using it, it starts tanking and like 1% every 3mins or so. I struggle to get a full day of use.
I'm running the May uodate, I updated while it was new so I don't know the performance before the update.
I've already reset once and wiped cache. Even in safe mode battery is still weak.
I need help fixing this.

It's decent 3G. Usually 3 bars when I'm at home, 4G at work but I use wi-fi there.
I wake up around 5am and by the time I leave at around 7 I'll be at around 80%. After just reading articles and scheming through social media
Right now I've been browsing Reddit and Tapatalk for the past 30mins and I'm already down 7% brightness is at minimum and I'm on 3G

I have now after 9 hours where I played the last 2,5 hours music and now 55%. Screen on time is 2 hours

yes battery life is not good for 4000 mah .for exemple redmi note 7 with same 4000 mah get way more battery life than a50 . for me i get 7 to 8 hours sot mixed wifi and 3g in one day ( 18 hours to be exact) .it drain 10 % in 9 hours when screen off .samsung need to improve battery life in future updates

Here's a quick tip
Samsung devices tend to drain a lot of battery because of app background usage
try to put apps to sleep ( apps that you need them only when you open them)
Also activate medium power saving if you need more battery
With normal use am getting around 9-10 and sometimes 11 SOT
With games and heavy use i get 6-7 SOT
all of this without any power saving option .

I debloted and now getting almost 9 hours of sot on normal usage on 4g always and dual sim on.. I mainly use for watching videos on youtube. Chatting telegram and whatsapp and calls 1 hour per day

How was the battery life before debloat. My phone didn't come with that much bloatware. It's not the Indian version and still on May update and there's virtually no stand by drain. Battery is significantly worse when using 3G

note 10 + Battery Issues / Not satisfied

Hi dear Team
I got my 10 plus (5g) although 3 uk is still to deliver it in order to see the speeds.
I am completely in love with the phone, for sure.
However, my problem is the battery.
Previous device was Mate 20 pro, with a battery that literally could last the full day , this one not really.
while on Mate 20 pro I would go home after 14h , with still 20% , now If I am lucky, It will have 3%
Different screen yeah, but it still feels bad.
Quality is (default) so not even enjoying the full resolution out of it.
Could you help me or tell me your experience as well?
I remember the times with my S8 that while on Roaming, I had to charge it 2 or even 3 times during the day
Thanks!

You need to closely watch what happens when you block them and opposed to toggling them off.
They're witchy.
I actively monitor milliamp usage realtime to spot runaways. I'm running at around 140-300 ma right now.
MA closely mirrors the cpu usage.
Screen off my power usage with AOD active is around 1%@hr.

Hey can you share the exact list of apps that you have disabled. That would be really nice of you. I don't wanna risk doing something stupid.
Battery life is the only thing my note 10 plus is struggling with.

Disably all power management including Samsung's and especially any carrier apps.
-Untoggle any power saving settings first.-
Disable all cloud apps. Knox junk.
Disable carrier, Samsung and Google feedback trash.
All Bixby except Bixby vision and Bixby vision framework which the cam needs.
Otherwise you need to sort through, learn which ones you want/use, and how they interact. Some bloatware you probably use and want to keep.
Some like Playstore I keep disabled unless I need it.
Each set up is different... play with it.

Do you have Bixby wake up word on?
It used 37 % of battery yesterday. Took me a week to figure this out as the battery was not doing well for me either.
Disable Bixby entirely!!

Don't compare it to the Mate 20 Pro. That phone is just in a league of its own. The P30 Pro battery is even better so don't expect anything close to that as these phones are known for insane battery life.
Are you using snapdragon or Exynos?
If you are using Exynos then you won't get what the Snapdragon variant offers. Snapdragon has better battery life and this is the problem with Samsung. They should make all their phones using snapdragon chips

Hello,
Was wondering if someone has had the same experience with their note 10+.
I got my device on the 22nd of Aug and since day 1 the battery has always been showing 99% almost immediately after disconnecting from the charger.
But after that, it discharges normally. Have had no issues with SOT as well.
This wasnt the case with my note 8 and note 9. They used to stay on 100% for a while after disconnecting from the charger.
But was wondering if anyone else has had the same experience with their Note 10+.
Thank you.

I only needed to disable the always on listening for the wake-up word for my battery to get back to normal (and disable bixby routines in settings).
Battery is OK now for me - still not as good as Huawei Mate 20 Pro but good enough.

Battery life

Battery life seems to be like a year old phone for me, it's terrible. I have the 5g version. Nit on 5g yet but it doesn't seem very good. Any tips

How new/old is your device? Also exynos or snap?
I've got a 2 day old exynos and I'm pretty impressed, seem to be getting over 7-8hrs sot.

A month or so old

It's funny because when I wrote my initial reply it did seem impressive. But as the days go by, its perhaps a bit less impressive! Seems to be draining a bit quicker. Probably got more like 5hrs sot today, although that's not bad I think I just expected more.
I do recall with my s10 plus it was similar then after a week or 2 battery optimizations kicked in and it seemed really good.
I can't think of any specific settings. Main things I've done are put social media apps to not background sync, dark mode all the time and adaptive power saving.

Yeah battery life is not this phone’s strong suit. I barely make it through the day with every battery saving possibilities activated.
I did get a used 3 month old for an incredible price so can't complain more. Cheers!

S20 heating issue and battery drain

I'm planning to buy s20 Exynos version mobile. I am aware that it had heating issue and battery drain issue when it was launched but I found online reveiws that it was fixed by recent firmware update.
Can you guys please tell me whether it was fixed? How is the battery backup now? Does heating problem solved?
Your answers will help me to take a good decision.
Thanks

As 2 month s20 Exynos user i can say - it depends. Antennas are either poor or the networking optimization is **** - i have weaker phone signal with the S20 than with my old mate 20 pro. Yes if you live and work in a area with good 4g/wifi you will not have this problem( at home i get about 20-24h usage per charge and 5-6h sot), if not you might experience severe battery drain ( at work where my network coverage is **** i have 5-8% stand-by drain, which i did not have with my mate 20 pro). Now it is really hot in Belgium so the phone is hot, but if the weather is normal it will only get hot when you use it a lot( i made it hit 40 degrees when i was taking pictures for about 2h straight), other than this no excessive overheating. It is a good phone, i really like it, but the battery drain and the need to charge 20-40% at work so i will last the day is not okay. I can only hope updates will improve this but if not i'd recommend basically any other non samaung phone if you live/work in poor coverage areas( at work a college with an iphone has 0 problems and have finished the day with 80% battery left, he is on the same network).

Thanks for your feedback. I'm expecting more user feedbacks.

Any other feedbacks please? I'm expecting more users feedback

After reading so many reviews on the internet and having experienced Exynos on my former S8, I went with the Snapdragon9810 variant from Hongkong at the risk of warranty issues etc.
But I must tell you, so far this phone has been giving me consistent battery life, performance. No signal issues, VOLTE ,VOWIFI works seamlessly. Haven't had the chance to try the 5G since 5G is not availability is very limited in my country.
No heating issues at all. Used for extended periods on the first few days out of excitement, yet felt nothing compared to former Exynos.
Only disappointment for me so far had been native call recording is disabled and eSIM support is also disabled. Both of which could have been regulars for me if they were available.
So I'd like to suggest you, reevaluate your options and never settle with a half baked exynos.
Good luck!!

In india they sell Exynos version only. I could not buy Snapdragon version. That's the problem here. I still prefer buying Exynos but I would like to know the battery performance

After a week using S20 plus 5G (coming from S8plus) I must say the heating problem exists. My s8+ never heated that much! And not that I'm doing god knows what with the phone, just standard suage - Faceboo, messenger, news app, mail....

Using Exynos version of S20+ for about 3 months. Yes the phone occasionally get hot once or twice a week.. Battery backup is decent getting 5-7 hours of SOT. I don't play heavy games like PUBG, just play some lite games. but phone become warm while using camera app for extensive time. If you play heavy games go for oneplus but camera & display is better in s20 than op8pro. Lastly if you are not a gamer you will definitely enjoy s20 exynos.

General use I find it is ok but using Android Auto it gets ridiculously hot, yesterday it was 50c according to CPU Monitor app
